MWC TV partner offers up a freebie for Big Game

The TCU-Utah Nov. 6 Mountain West game of the year (if not century) will be a freebie for satellite and cable subscribers nationally.

CBS College Sports Network was the partner to land the premier game of the season between the teams currently ranked fourth and eighth nationally. A higher-priced tier in some markets, CBS College Sports will be free to DISH subscribers, Comcast homes and select other cable companies within the Mountain West footprint.

The free preview period began Monday and will include Saturday’s Air Force-Utah and TCU-UNLV doubleheader.
